Second round draft choice (1969). Homered off of 179 different pitchers. Changed from number 27 to 44 in 1980 as a tribute to his mother, who passed away at age 44 that year.

There were no official games played the last week of the month due to the all star break.. Became the oldest ever to win a homer title in 1988, setting what was then a world record for a 40 year old, easily eclipsing Darrell Evans 34. and oldest to an RBI crown in 1989. In February 1979 at Nankai's spring camp in Kochi, landed awkwardly on his right foot while jogging and suffered a severed Achilles tendon. From 1980 on batted mostly as a DH.
